Elliott’s been the best instructor I’ve had. He’s very calm and patient. He gives lots of good practical advice and tips on difficult manoeuvres. I would highly recommend him.

My instructor Elliot is patient. I feel comfortable on each lesson and he explains what we are going to do in each lesson clearly and answers any questions I have for him so that I understand everything. Definitely feel safe in the car and would highly recommend??

My son passed his driving test first time this week after taking lessons with Elliott. I cannot recommend him enough - he is very passionate about his job and does it in a calm and patient way. I have already booked my younger sons driving lessons with Elliott when he turns 17 in a few months time.

So happy to have passed my test it may have taken me over 40 hours but thanks to Elliott I passed and I am so happy to say I can now drive on my own

Elliot is one of the best instructor out there who knows how to teach his students how to drive within few lessons. Not only that he’s very calm and patient with me when I make mistakes in driving and ensures that I don’t repeat it again. He’ll certainly advance your driving skills to ensure that you can easily pass your driving test.?

Top quality instructor who makes the whole experience stress free, confidence inspiring and just generally enjoyable. If you wanna pass first time you need an instructor with a talent for teaching like Elliott does. 10/10

Amazing instructor who instantly puts you at ease! Would 100% recommend to anyone!

Elliot has been amazing with me. He is the most patient instructor I have had and he makes lessons enjoyable too. Thank you so much for all your hard work to get me where I am! ?

I had confidence issues due to a past instructor and took time out of lessons I found Elliott and from the first lesson he has been absolutely amazing my confidence grew straight away and the nerves went and I looked forward to my lessons each week! I can not thank Elliott for what he has done and would highly recommend him to anyone. I have already asked him to teach my son next year! Thank you again!

Elliot is an outstanding instructor who has helped me over the last few weeks to pass my driving test and I did with ease after all that he had taught me I definitely recommend

Elliott is a really great instructor. He’s really patient and has been able to easily talk me through manoeuvres and has made driving so much easier! Would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Amazing instructor, and is always kind and calm whatever the situation. When I first started taking lessons, I had no confidence in driving but now with Elliot I’ve progressed a lot and feel so much more comfortable. He is very clear with instructions whilst supporting your own learning style.

Thanks so much Elliott you have been one of the best instructors iv had.

A big thank you to my instructor Elliot and also Drive Johnsons for introducing the best instructor ever. He is very professional, calm and friendly and knows how to make the driving experience stress free which I believe is the key to learning. Being an absolute beginner he helped me build my confidence in no time and made me progress at my own pace. Looking forward to have more lessons and would highly recommend him to anyone who is willing to be a safe, skilled and confident driver.

Test tip of the month for Swinton

You won’t be marked down for constantly checking your mirrors, but your examiner may think you are being excessive. Whilst you can’t be marked down, checking them constantly may affect your concentration on the road ahead.

Useful driving test tip for Swinton Show more

Useful driving test tip for Swinton

If you are doing a manoeuvre and you get too close to the kerb, don’t panic! Firstly, stop so you can assess your position better by looking in the door mirrors. The next thing you will need to do is take a shunt forwards to create some space, so when you go back into reverse you can adjust the steering sooner. Lastly, don’t forget to keep up all round observations throughout the manoeuvre.
